Little Chance for the Beginner.

I must say, in aHSeandor; that it is be- ginning to look to me as if, between the syndicate system, the ready plate system and the growth of exelusireness and ia voritismi that there fsn't fair show for the developing author, He may sally forth as boldly as eyer with a free lance, but he cannot get illfo the arena in which he longs to deport. This exclusiyeness has reached such a limit that one or two magazines state that they want nothing that has not been specially ordered. In other woris, the writer with an estab- fshed reputation is solicited to write an articles with the privilege of naming his terins;- the writer without a reputation isn't solicited and isn't wanted on any erms, no n1atter how excellent the article ne has to offer.

A little Boston maiden of 6 summers has a prize King Charles spaniel, for which doting aunt paid the neat price of $400. The aunt wss desirious of entering the dog, and. obtaining permission of the girls parents, she did so. It then became necessary to break the news to the child that for four days she would be separated from her pet At first she refused to be comforted, answering all arguments and offers of bribes merely by extravagant lamentations; but atlength the Inevitable seemed to assert itself in the corner of her small brain devoted to philosophy and upon the theory that what must be must -e,, saa-h f-asssa mora ealn, She wasoysS. heard, however, giving very earnest ad4 vice to -heS -dafliTp upon the proper man. ner of conducting himself in this strange show to which he was going, and she laid especial stress upon the company he was to keep there.

Contents of a Gods stomach.

At the regular meeting of the Bio logical society, Capt. J. W.

Saved From a Tigers Jaw.

Only few months ago, in India, in a certain planting district there was @ notorious man eater. Two gentlemen, A and B, residing together OH an estate, had lost, besides other employees, two chowke- bars, or native watchmen, within a few days, and the unfortunate men had been actually carried off out of the veranda of the bungalow. A and B therefore deter mined to clothe themselves like natives, and sit during the night, armed, in the veranda, in the hopes they might be able to get shot at the man cater, who, they thought, might probably return to the spot which had already provided him with two victims.
 They proceeded to carry out this inten- tion, and sat up till about or o'clock @, m., but nothing appeared. A then said he should not stay. up any longer, as he did not believe the animal would come; but B announced his intention of waiting half an hour longer by himself. There were large windows opening down to the floor of the veranda, and through one of these A retired, and after entering his room, had just closed the window, and was gazing out for an instant, when he saw a dark mass land in the veranda, right on to his friend, then heard sounds of scuffie, and a cry for help.

Vibration of tha Ether

Photography has never reproduced nat ural coiors: Scientists explain this fact by the statement that color has no ob- lective existence. It is simply the brain's Interpretation of the rapidity with which the waves of a ray of light beat against the retina. Beats more rapid produce the sensation of the mind known as violet; beats less rapid, that known as red. Violet and red are nothing but variations of the ether until they reach the optic nerve and communicate to that the vibrations, which the brain translates. To photograph color is therefore as impossible as to photograph sound.-Frank Leslie's.

A French Love praught.

Two women recently went to a grave digger in rural France and asked him to sell them some human bones, which he did for good price.

HELP ON THE BOOM.

There are very few who doubt that
Dodge City is about to enter on a
boom, which will attract to her aid pro-
fessional boomers and spectators from
all parts of the country; men who know
a good thing when they see it, and the
cases are very rare when they fail to see
it, and appropriate their knowledge to
their own advantage. The Dodge City
boom is coming, in fact has come, de-
spite any efforts to keep it back; for
there are people in every community that
do every thing they can to hinder enter
prise and ward off booms. While the
city is now moving at very fast rate,
yet many of its citizens who really desire
to see the city prosper are not in any
way giving their aid in Fastening its
growth. If you ask how we shall do
this, for our answer we point to Wichita,
as the criterion of western bOoms. The
secret is, use printers ink; let everybody
know that you exist. In the Inaugural
ton of her boom the merchants Of Wich-
ita said to their home papers, put in our
ads and take them out at your own
discretion, but be particular to send in
our bills all the same This forms the
text for all future booms. Men of bust
ness help on the boom, and in the end
the city which you have raised to af-
fluence will reward you and yours &C.
cordingly.

THE DODGE CITY GAS WE'LL

A stay of 80 days has been decided on
by those who are taking most active part
in the natural gas project. But this post
ponement must not be considered in
any way an abandonment of the matter,
but rather as an evidence that its project
ors propose to act in systematic and
business like manner, which is always
surer of ultimate success than sudden
ebulition of enthusiasm, without definite
plan or system, and bearing in its wake
almost certain failure of the enterprise.
The corpses of such spasmodic efforts at
booming are common almost everywhere.
Coal and oil and gas prospectuses are
scattered around like gopher hills on a
prairie, from these incipient booms, pi-
loted by the meager experiences of reck-
less youth, premature in their beginning
and disastrous in their end. The Dodge
City Natural Gas and Coal Company has
no idea of any such record Of failure. and
is acting with enough caution to give
their enterprise certain success. During
the time that will elapse before the next
regular meeting the proper amount OF
funds will have been collected, all the
necessary information, obtained, and the
machinery ready to begin work at once.

TRUE MERIT.

We wish to say to every one interested
in clothes washing that the Tuttle combi-
nation steam washer is an article of true
MERIT that it is, without question, the
only complete family washing machine
ever known. 1t clenses the finest lace or
coarsest article of washing perfectly and
without injury. The machine is easily
wOrked-a child ten years old being cap
able of operating it, and will do wash
ing in two hours that requires a hard
days labor at the wash tub. The steam
washer is universally known as the only
true washer. The Tuttle steam washer
is of late origin, and an improvement
over all others or it would not have been
granted patent. There has been large
territory disposed of on the merits of the
futile washer, and while there is good
ly field remaining unsold we callenge any
one to produce any enterprise with like
amount of investments that will give an
enterprising man the same returns. Ex-
cellent arrangements made with county
agents. To prove our claims for the ma
chine, we would refer you to parties who
have used the Tuttle washer in this city
for nearly year, and who speak in high
est terms of praise for the same. or we
will show or operate the washer at your
homes free of charge. Dodge City is our
headquarters for western Kansas. at the
grain and grocery store of j. w. Gibbs
s. Co.. where we will be pleased to meet
parties wishing to interview US.

THE ARKANSAS, KANSAS

OF WAY SECURED IN
TO DODGE CITY.
The Site Of the Depot Selected.

The City Council passed an ordinance
which appears in another column, grant
ing to the A. K. & C. r. R. company
right of way through this city.
Col. C. D. Perry, president Of the load,
is in the east perfecting arrangements, and
on his return the work will be common
ced and the road will be completed early
in the spring.
Sixty acres of land has been donated
by the property holders on the South
Side as site for the depot and other nec-
essary buildings. which are all to be erec-
ted by the time the road is in full opera
ton. The land set apart for this purpose
is located just north of the intersection
of 4th and Bridge Streets, in
Crawfords addition. South Dodge. The
knowledge which we have been able to
obtain as to the intentions of the COM
pany is somewhat vague, but in case
word is received from Col. Perry we hope
to give our readers fuller information
next week.

RAIN AND DEW.

This city and vicinity was blessed hith
another splendid rain Friday night which
was followed by lesser, one Saturday
night. This assures a good crop of late
corn and hay, and the stockmen are ju-
bilant over the prospects for good fall
pasturage. In town the trees and other
vegetation..is as thrifty as could be de-
sired. There can be no better proof fur
nished as to the effectiveness of the rain
showers in the last few: weeks, than to
state that on last Monday morning quite
heavy dew was formed over the land
scape, giving it the freshness and fra
GRANGE of early spring. In a very few
years this great refresher of vegetation
and atmosphere will be potent every
where.

ANOTHER MILL.

A new grist mill will soon be in opera

of Messrs Marsh, Chapman and Hubbard.
A complete outfit of new machinery ar
rived this week and will soon be adjust
ed ready for use. Messrs Chapman and
Hubbard, both of whom are experienced
millers, will have charge of the business,
so that there can be no failure from lack
of proper management. This mill is
equipped for turning out Fc0rn meal.
graham flour, and feeds of all sorts. Its
speciality will be the finest grade of corn
meal, for which purpose it has been
specially furnished with French burrs,
a machine for cleaning and asserting the
grain, and every possible contrivance for
preparing meal of the first quality. The
new mill is located on Bridge street, d.
rectly on the line of the proposed street
railway, and is the best location that
could possibly be found for this business.

THE KANSAS & SOUTHWEST.
ERN RAILROAD

File q Mortgage With the Ford
County Register Of Ooeds.

On Friday last the Kansas and South

ing their right of way through Ford
county, in the sum of $4,000 per mile.
and designating George Gould and Sidney
Dillon as Trustees.
Last winter the people of Ford county
voted 1920, 600 to aid in the construction
of the Kansas and Southwestern Rail
road, the sum subscribed to be taken in
stock of the above named company. The
contract stipulated that the Kansas and
Southwestern should be built to Dodge
City by December list, 1887.
The Kansas and Southwestern Railroad
is part of the Gould system of railroads,
being branch of the Denver, Memphis
and Atlantic Railroad. A branch of this
road has been built to Larned, one is
soon to be completed to Kinsley, and the
third line to Dodge City.
The hardness which this road has
shown in making any move in
dicating its purpose, led many people to
believe that it would never be built. But
Goulds right hand men have actually
taken hold of the enterprise. and that it
will be pushed through in dead earnest
before the snow flies, leaves no room for
doubt.
